1 Citrix Service Provider Program Frequently Asked Questions 27April2016
2 Citrix Service Provider Program: Overview The Citrix Service Provider Partner Program provides the comprehensive technical and business resources service providers need to build a high-value Desktops-as-a-Service (DaaS) business. Citrix makes partners successful at building their own highly differentiated, customized DaaS solutions through access to monthly pay-as-you-go licensing, a validated reference architecture, and prescriptive business and marketing resources. Citrix provides the complete package for partners to build and deliver complete hosted service portfolios with hosted desktops, hosted apps, mobile device management and secure file share and sync, plus the infrastructure for self-service provisioning and secure networking. With Citrix, service providers have all of the elements to create scalable, reliable private or public cloud-based DaaS offerings. See details at What is the Citrix Service Provider Program? The Citrix Service Provider Program is a Citrix partner program designed specifically for service providers who provide and/or resell hosted software services to end-user customers. The Citrix Service Provider Program helps partners build high-value hosted workspace businesses through extensive guidance, support and tools to plan, build, market and sell. With Citrix, service providers can: Quickly develop and scale up a complete hosted workspace infrastructure based on validated Citrix Reference Architectures to offer a full range of cloud-based services, including hosted applications, Desktops-as-a-Service, secure file sync and sharing, plus mobile device management. Differentiate hosted workspace solutions with customizable offerings for market verticals and niches Expand quickly and strategically through special product licenses and flexible payas-you-go licensing with no up-front license fee commitments Focus on hosted business growth using the Citrix Service Provider Center of Excellence, a comprehensive, prescriptive resource center for business planning, market sizing, sales planning, demand generation and customer on-boarding Leverage the expertise and assistance of Citrix technical support and consulting SECTION 1: Program Basics How is the Citrix Service Provider Program different from being a Citrix Solution Advisor? The Citrix Service Provider Program addresses the service provider market for offsite, multitenant hosting, and augmented with on-premises equipment if needed to satisfy service level agreements. In this setup, the end-user customer is not the licensee and does not manage nor access the management infrastructure of the Citrix Service Provider.
3 The Citrix Service Provider program extends to service providers the right to use Citrix products as the underpinning of their delivery infrastructure and gives Citrix Service Providers (where applicable) the flexibility of a monthly active subscriber pricing and licensing model. Service providers always have access to the most current versions of Citrix products available in the program and only pay for actual end-user usage recorded or accounts active during the previous calendar month. Who joins the Citrix Service Provider program? The Citrix Service Provider program attracts service providers who want to provide software services and hosted applications to end-user customers on a rental, subscription or services basis. The Citrix Service Provider program is structured to help service providers scale their business by maximizing the number of customers served from the same underlying software, using multi-tenancy for high density and high utilization levels. What are the qualifications to join the Citrix Service Provider program? For current details, visit the Citrix Service Provider website. Qualification includes: - current member in the Microsoft Service Provider Licensing Agreement (SPLA) program - agree to utilize Citrix products in an off-site, multi-tenant environment - submit monthly point of sale (POS) reports on time to a designated Citrix Service Provider distributor - maintain a minimum of two Citrix CCA certifications for each Citrix product deployed. - employ Citrix Usage Collector on all license servers that use Citrix Service Provider licensing - allow Citrix the right to audit and access the facility to ensure reporting compliance. Why would a service provider join the Citrix Service Provider program? There are a host of sales, marketing, and technical benefits associated with the Citrix Service Provider program that service providers will find immediately valuable. The program benefits include: Flexibility to host complete mobile workspaces hosted desktops, applications, mobile device management and file sharing with monthly service provider licensing Ability to host Citrix enabled services on a worldwide basis Fast entry into the quickly growing Desktops-as-a-Service market Extremely compelling and flexible monthly pricing Active subscriber pricing which can drive greater profitability Volume discounts No membership fee to join the program No upfront commitments or minimum purchase requirements Pricing stability Streamlined reporting process in sync with the Microsoft SPLA program Flexibility to choose between two levels of service
4 Ability to offer IaaS on a monthly basis Accurate and rapid reporting using Citrix tools (Premium level privilege) Right to offer free of charge 30-day end-user evaluations of hosted services Lower total cost of ownership (TCO) with greater server and user density in the data center High end-user satisfaction with any device, any time access and a high definition experience Access to design for best practices with Citrix Service Provider Reference Architecture Access to the Citrix Service Provider Center of Excellence, an end-to-end business, sales, marketing and technical resource for growing a service provider business Complete sales training resources including training decks, reference cards and technical sales insights Turnkey marketing resources, including campaigns, datasheets and marketing tools Access to Citrix Marketing Concierge, a full-scale marketing system for managing campaigns, webinars and roadshows with pre-set customizable campaigns Opportunity for design review with Citrix Service Provider Solution Architects Ability to use Citrix corporate logo and partner program logo Access to Citrix Partner Central portal Access to Citrix partner events such as Citrix Summit How do Citrix and Microsoft work together to enable service providers? Microsoft has been extremely supportive of the Citrix Service Provider program see this video for details. The two companies have been working together for more than 26 years; the Citrix Service Provider program is modeled in large part after the Microsoft SPLA program. The Citrix Service Provider program helps Microsoft drive additional service provider business and increases the numbers of monthly subscribers using Microsoft technologies. Additionally, the Citrix Service Provider program allows ISVs to offer applications as SaaS-based solutions via Citrix Service Providers or on their own. What is Microsoft SPLA? The Microsoft Service Provider License Agreement (SPLA) enables service providers and ISVs with a hosted offering to license Microsoft products on a monthly basis to provide services and hosted applications to their end customers. Many service providers equate SPLA with the monthly pricing and licensing model used to charge for hosted software services. The Citrix Service Provider program includes a similar Citrix Service Provider Program Agreement that defines service provider partners use rights. Who can answer specific questions about Microsoft SPLA licensing policies? Please direct Microsoft SPLA questions, including licensing questions, to the Microsoft SPLA program site. It is incumbent on the service provider to remain compliant with all Microsoft licensing and pricing policies under the SPLA program in order to be compliant with the Citrix Service Provider program.
5 What are the advantages for service providers who use Citrix with Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS)? Capability End user access Mobility Security Graphical display Multi-user access Mobile device management File sharing Granular control of user experience Citrix-based Desktops-as-a- Service End users demand full desktop/application access on any device Any computer, tablet, smartphone access across any bandwidth or network Secure environments, especially with financial or healthcare compliance issues High-definition or 3D graphic requirements on any device. Load balancing and delivery of graphical applications Define access for individuals or groups, align with Microsoft Active Directory settings User or customer-wide mobile device management/security Secure file share and sync accessed from any location or device Manage bandwidth per protocol and per user How can a service provider join the Citrix Service Provider program? Service providers who are not existing Citrix partners can visit and apply online. A current Citrix partner may at any time belong to both the Citrix Service Provider and another Citrix partner program. Existing Citrix partners may apply on Citrix Partner Central under Benefits and Programs. What are the fees associated with getting started as a Citrix Service Provider? There are no entry fees associated with joining the Citrix Service Provider program and no upfront license fees. Citrix does not have a minimum monthly billing threshold commitment for service providers.
6 Citrix technical support contracts of five incidents are also available for new partners that require implementation support. Keep in mind, Citrix Service Providers who report $300 USD per month over a three month period are eligible for no-charge Citrix technical support, so establishing a successful service and reporting revenue quickly are keys to success. How much do I pay for licenses? The Citrix Service Provider program ensures service providers only pay for what their customers actually use or sign up to use each month. Billing is submitted on a monthly basis and there are no minimum monthly commitments. Pricing for each product license is determined with the Citrix Service Provider distributor. How do I upgrade my licenses? All CSP licenses include upgrades at no additional cost so partners always have access to the latest versions. How do Citrix Service Providers allow end user demos and proof of concepts? Citrix Service Providers can support free of charge evaluations of their service by end users for a period not exceeding 30 days. Should evaluations exceed 30 days, standard pricing will apply. NFR and internal use licenses are not relevant to this Citrix partner type. Why was the Citrix Service Provider Program created? The Citrix Service Provider Program was created in response to growing demand from service providers for a monthly subscription-based pricing and licensing program. Service providers require a flexible cost structure that eliminates any up-front license fees or minimum commitments as well as the ability to carefully manage cash flow. Citrix created the service provider program with these core requirements in mind so that program members will be able to build their businesses methodically and profitably. Citrix incorporated input from leading service providers to create this compelling program that s in sync with the service provider business model. What are the technical support requirements? Citrix Service Providers are responsible for all technical support to their end-user customers. Many service providers find it helpful to purchase a Citrix technical support contract for Citrix authorized technical support. Note Citrix Service Providers reporting more than $300 USD per month over a three month period earn the benefit of no-charge Citrix technical support, delivered 24x7 via phone and web. Current Citrix Service Provider partners renewing their 2- year program agreement but not reporting $300 USD per month will be required to purchase a Citrix technical support agreement as part of the registration process. Note existing Citrix Solution Advisor (CSA) technical support contracts may not be used to support Citrix Service Provider technologies.
7 What is a Citrix Service Provider distributor and what function(s) do they perform? Citrix has a separate approved list of distributors for the Citrix Service Provider program. These distributors may or may not also be distributors of other Citrix partner programs. A complete list of Citrix Service Provider distributors is available on the Citrix website. Designated Citrix Service Provider Distributors are authorized to recruit, manage, and support service providers as well as aggregate monthly reporting from all the service providers in their respective geography. This model is extremely efficient and is in sync with how other ISVs (e.g., Microsoft) manage their service provider business. Citrix Service Provider Distributors are incented by rebates tied to on-time reporting of service providers in their network. Where do Citrix Service Providers go for program support? Citrix Service Providers receive primary support from their Citrix Service Provider distributor. Questions about product, pricing, licensing and the overall program should all be directed to the distributors. Citrix Service Provider distributors are approved by Citrix based on their experience in supporting the needs of the service provider community. Citrix works very closely with the Citrix Service Provider distributors to support the successful ramp-up of service providers Technical questions should be directed to Citrix technical support, either using the Citrix Service Provider s paid or earned Citrix technical support contract (see Support section). Questions not fitting these areas can be directed to csp@citrix.com. This is monitored by worldwide teams who promptly respond to service provider inquiries. SECTION 2: Pricing, Selling and Marketing Hosted Services What is a typical customer profile for Citrix Service Provider based hosted services? Citrix Service Providers focus on businesses that do not want to own IT or complete IT services. Citrix Service Providers take over the delivery of full hosted desktops, applications, file sharing and mobile device management for the organization. A typical customer may be a small to medium-size law firm, accounting practice, medical practice, or manufacturing company with multiple sites and limited IT staff. The end user organization pays the Citrix Service Provider on a per user per month basis. Monthly subscriber-based licensing is often more attractive to small and medium business customers who cannot take advantage of volume discounting, and/or who need to adjust their staff levels to meet changing market conditions.
8 How much do Citrix Service Providers charge for a hosted service? Citrix Service Providers determine their own fees for hosted services, depending on the offering s complexity. Current Citrix Service Providers have reported per month per user fees ranging from $50 USD per user per desktop up to $300 USD and more per user per desktop. On the low end of the scale, some offerings are limited to a single hosted application. Midsize offerings may include hosted desktops with multiple line of business applications. Larger offerings including the entire hosted desktop, hosted applications, file share and sync, plus mobile device management. More complex applications, such as electronic medical records, ERP systems or graphicsintensive CAD or engineering apps, are more difficult to manage and can correlate to the price of the hosted desktop. End users who want to get out of managing IT, server upgrades, software updates, security concerns and compliance issues find the convenience and peace of mind of a well-managed hosted desktop far outweighs the costs. What else can Citrix Service Providers sell beyond Desktops-as-a-Service? In addition to complete Desktops-as-a-Service offerings, Citrix Service Providers could provide a single hosted application to a client, host a single application or applications for an ISV who doesn t have a SaaS-based offering, NetScaler as a service, or mobility (mobile device management) as a service. What is the target market for Citrix Service Providers? Citrix Service Providers work with a large range of businesses. Many focus on small to medium sized business, such as organizations with less than 500 employees. A typical customer may be a small to medium-size law firm, accounting practice, medical practice, or manufacturing company with multiple sites and limited IT staff. Some Citrix Service Providers focus on serving customers in their local and regional markets (i.e. city, state, country). Citrix Service Providers see success in many vertical markets and some highly successful partners specialize on one specific vertical as a business practice. What resources are available to train a sales team on Citrix-based hosted offerings? One benefit of the Citrix Service Provider program is access to complete sales enablement materials, including training videos, sales reference cards, and technical sales tips and complete sales materials such as customizable datasheets and slide decks). Sales teams are also invited to attend Citrix Summit for unique training opportunities. What marketing benefits are available for Citrix Service Providers?
9 Citrix Service Providers have access to marketing resources to raise visibility and drive leads: - Citrix Marketing Concierge, a turn-key marketing system pre-loaded with customizable campaigns on hot topics like BYOD and security. Use Marketing Concierge to send and track campaigns, webinars and in-person events. - Customizable datasheets, slide decks, videos and end-user facing collateral - Citrix Syndication and Social Syndication - Target audience definition and business definition resources via the Citrix Service Provider Center of Excellence - Invitation to Citrix Summit for in-person marketing training opportunities Are Citrix Advisor Rewards part of the program? No. Citrix Advisor Rewards are not offered as part of the Citrix Service Provider program. SECTION 3: Hosted Technology Questions Which Citrix technologies are included in the Citrix Service Provider program? The Citrix Service Provider program includes monthly usage-based pricing and licensing offerings for a broad range of Citrix technologies. Citrix helps service providers choose the best technologies to create their customized hosted offerings. For the current list of offerings, visit the Solutions for Service Providers page of Citrix.com These Citrix technologies are licensed as part of the Citrix Service Provider program: Capability Hosted application delivery Hosted desktop delivery Hosted Workspace Mobile device management with file sync and share File sync & share Secure application delivery control Comprehensive hosted services provisioning and management control panel Server virtualization for any workload Citrix technology XenApp XenDesktop Citrix Workspace Suite XenMobile with Sharefile Sharefile NetScaler (VPX, Gateway VPX CloudBridge VPX) CloudPortal Services Manager XenServer How are product updates (Citrix Subscription Advantage) and renewals handled? The Citrix Service Provider product licensing includes Citrix Subscription Advantage as part of the monthly per user per month pricing. Citrix Service Providers are always eligible to download the latest updates and new versions, ensuring their end user environments are always secure and up to date.
10 Is there tiered or volume pricing available for hosted technologies? The Citrix Service Provider program offers tiered pricing models for three consumption types (Subscribers, Virtual Instances, Physical Servers). Each consumption type includes discount tiers, each with its own discount level, that help establish the overall, total discount across the entire subscriber base. Subscribers: (XenApp, XenDesktop, XenMobile, CloudPortal Services Manager) Discount Tiers 0-5,000 5,000-15,000 15,001-30,000 30,001-60,000 Discount for Tier 0% 15% 25% 35% Total Net Effective Discount 0% 10% 18% 26%* Virtual Instances: (NetScaler VPX, Branch Repeater VPX, XenServer) Discount Tiers 0-5,000 5,000-15,000 15,001-30,000 30,001-60,000 Discount for Tier 0% 15% 25% 35% Total Net Effective Discount 0% 10% 18% 26%** Physical Servers: (XenServer) Discount Tiers 0-5,000 5,000-15,000 15,001-30,000 30,001-60,000 Discount for Tier 0% 15% 25% 35% Total Net Effective Discount 60K Subscribers 6K Virtual Instances 600 Physical Servers 0% 10% 18% 26%*** What is active subscriber licensing and how does it help with Citrix Service Providers? All Citrix Service Provider licensing is based on user/device (no concurrent user licensing). The Citrix active subscriber licensing model is actual usage-based pricing, extremely popular with service providers. Service providers offer hosted application services and desktops per month per named user (aka subscriber ). In the Citrix model, the service provider only reports and pays for those subscribers that actually log-in and use the desktop service.
11 Active subscriber licensing accommodates variability in month to month usage and is tabulated based on the total number of actual desktop users during the preceding calendar month time period. Active subscriber licensing affords the service provider the added benefit of being able to calculate exactly what their subscriber revenue will be on a monthly basis while also guaranteeing that their costs will never exceed revenue. Service providers find Citrix licensing model extremely fair and appreciate the utility-based nature of Citrix service provider licensing. In fact, many service providers find Citrix offers an innovative licensing model that directly contributes to their bottom line profitability. How will service providers be charged for specific Citrix technologies?

The Citrix Usage Collector is a an attachment to the Citrix license server that monitors the use of XenDesktop and XenApp and reports anonymous data back to Citrix on user logins.

The license rights under the Citrix Service Provider Program are defined in the Citrix Service Provider Program Guide How are licenses delivered to a Citrix Service Provider program member?

Upon receipt, Citrix deliver licenses via Citrix Partner Central to the account of the designated Citrix Service Provider contact. Additional questions can be addressed to the Citrix Service Provider Program Team at csp@citrix.com this mailbox is monitored on a global basis and replies are prompt.
